History

The Maliseet Conservation Council was established in 2004 as a Non profit Organization on behalf of the six Wolastoqey Chiefs across our unceded Territory.

 

  • Welamukotuk (Oromocto First Nation) 

  • Sitansisk (Saint Mary's First Nation)

  • Pilick (Kingsclear First Nation)

  • Wotstak ( Woodstock First Nation)

  • Neqotkuk (Tobique First Nation) 

  • Matawaskiye (Madawaska First Nation)

 

Maliseet Nation Conservation Council increases the involvement of the Wolastoqey in the decision making processes in our traditional watershed territory.
